SUMMARY:Effects of Radial Mixing on Galactic Disks\, Astronomy Colloqu
 ium\, Carlos Vera-Ciro\, UW Astronomy Department
DESCRIPTION:I will talk about secular evolution in disk galaxies\, in 
 particular we will discuss the effects of radial migration on the over
 all structure of galactic disks. Over the past few years this mechanis
 m has been argued to be a natural\, intrinsically driven\, way of expl
 aining observations such as the existence of a thick disk or the bias 
 in the distribution of metals at different galactocentric distances in
  the Milky Way. In this talk I will show results that confront some of
  these interpretations\, in particular in casting some questions about
  the role of radial migration in the assembly of the galactic thick di
 sk.
